P0702 Transmission Control System Electrical

The OBD-II trouble codes P0700, P0701, and P0702 are all related to the transmission control system in the vehicle.

P0700 is a generic code that indicates a problem with the transmission control system. This code is often accompanied by one or more additional codes that provide more specific information about the nature of the problem.

P0701 is a more specific code that indicates a problem with the transmission control system range or performance. This can be caused by a variety of issues, such as a faulty shift solenoid, a malfunctioning transmission speed sensor, or a problem with the transmission control module.

P0702 is a code that indicates an electrical issue with the transmission control system. This can be caused by problems with the wiring or connectors associated with the transmission control module or other transmission components.

In order to diagnose and repair these issues, a qualified technician will need to use specialized diagnostic equipment to communicate with the vehicle's on-board diagnostics system and identify the root cause of the transmission control system malfunction. The technician may need to test the wiring and connectors associated with the transmission control module, as well as perform tests on the shift solenoids, transmission speed sensor, or other transmission components as necessary.

Once the root cause of the issue is identified, the technician may need to repair or replace the faulty component or components, such as a shift solenoid, a speed sensor, or the transmission control module itself.

It is important to address these issues promptly, as a malfunctioning transmission control system can cause a variety of issues that may affect the drivability and safety of the vehicle. These issues can include erratic shifting, slipping or failing to engage, reduced fuel efficiency, and potential damage to the transmission.
